I have experience with infant care, school-aged children, after-school pickups, morning routines, meal preparation, playtime, homework help, and bedtime routines.In addition to babysitting, Iβve worked as a childrenβs instructor, teaching movement and physical literacy to students in kindergarten through eighth grade. These experiences have helped me create fun, engaging, and safe environments where children can learn, grow, and feel supported.I am responsible, patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy working with kids. My goal is to provide families with reliable care while making sure every child feels safe, happy, and encouraged. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, and I strive to treat every child with the same care and attention I would want for my own family.

My name is Ximena and I have been nannying professionally for over 15 years! I grew up an only child , however I come from a large family! We always had family events where there was so much going on but the one place everyone would always find me is where all the children were. From a young age I was always interested in childrenβs development. Seeing how we all came from the same upbringing but no child was exactly alike fascinated me. Growing up in Clifton I felt connected to my Latino heritage and I was exposed to many different backgrounds. Respecting others' cultural differences taught me alternative styles of parenting. I applied what I grew up seeing but I would take parts of other teachings and implement them in my babysitting as well. Nature vs Nurture has always come to mind when working with children ofdifferent backgrounds and led me to pursue a degree in psychology at Rutgers University-Newark. My babysitting journey began before going into high school where I was a full time babysitter during the summer to two girls and one boy ages 7, 9, and 11, and continued throughout the school year where I provided before/ after school care to 3 families in my neighborhood. After graduation I met this amazing family with two boys ages 4 and 8 that I worked with for 5 years. My responsibilities were ,meal prep ,school pick upstutoring ,incorporate Spanish, transportation, bath supervision, and bedtime prep. While parents were away for business I would stay with the boys at their home for a few weeks out of the year. My responsibilities during overnight stays included those aforementioned as well as getting theboys up and ready, preparing breakfast/lunches ,prepare dinner ,check homework, and bedtime prep. The boys had a very busy schedule however on our down time playing was a must, from playing soccer to science experiments to crafts etc.I went on to work with several other families as well as a nannying agency who I am still currently with.

I began babysitting when I was 15. I cared for two kids from when they were 10 months and 2 years old till they were 4 and 6 years old. During that time and after I was a lifeguard at a summer camp and an amusement park caring for children and adults. Since I graduated college in 2022 I have been caring for my nieces and nephews as needed. Watching them grow up has been so amazing to see.
